LMAO, 16 Sep 2018I know. Apple should just give away iPhones for free!!! T... moreWhy you guys are so extreme? Nobody telling them to sell phones for free. The price is ridiculous for sure. If you can't feel, good for you. i guess you are neither the owner nor an employee of apple computers. So you don't need to defend them. And fyi, in case you might raise the question of affordability like some show offs, i am an iPhone user.

    Lmao, 16 Sep 2018Ok. Apple is a company. Companies are out to make a profit.... moreApple QA is nothing special and customer service???

    Very high expenses compared to xiaomi.
    Only they CEO earn per month much more than chinese labourer working for apple can see in 40 years.
    So greedy company selling for greedy prices not for long.
    Huawei was right keeping fun of apple for letting all the same.
    Apple is troll company since Jobs is gone and people will realize that very soon.

Let’s just start selling all the new iPhones for $25. Some of you people and your mindless comments are the truly laughable ones.

      Apples QA is unbeatable. Their customer service is unbeatable. So is the ease of use of cross platform of using Apple products.

            According to the specs of new Iphones i can honestly say they sells even less than HTC this year-

But i think they never prioritize betterment of human being rather than profit. They are and were against open source, keeping the price high so even though they make a big profit but common people can't afford that and etc. etc. They are greedy. It's like you have the most beautiful girl in your neighborhood who is greedy but everyone wants her as girlfriend.

                    They are seen as High Quality, High Performance, Consumer Friendly, Status Making products. And honestly, there is truth behind it. However, where they really dominate is in their Services, Apps, and Operating System (ie Ecosystem) and their Marketing.

                    Even in China, where nationalism is big, they believe the iPhone is the best phone. Ahead of Huawei, Oppo, and Xiaomi. And despite their lower wages, people do buy iPhones there.

                      When you call a person genius for making a Linux distro closed source, when you have an OS that disallows you to control its network by a firewall, where makeup is more important than functionality, and when fanboys claim they do not need an anti-virus because they live in heaven, well....

So much lies. So much backstabbing. So much deceptive practices. So much broken dreams. So much traitors. Many have fallen. Many have rose.

                        IBM's doing OK now because they went to only Enterprise stuff. The consumer portion, which was once flourishing, collapsed after those poor decisions. Not instantly, but after the competition got together to offer what IBM offered without the bad and with 2x the capabilities. And also after Windows 3.0.

                        Apple never made any customer-friendly decision in the past few years. Face ID might be the only exception. Maybe history will repeat when Google will finish Fuschia... But right now, it does repeat. Big IBM decides to implement this, most "compatibles" companies fillow the exact same thing, good or bad (notch and no 3.5mm for instance)

                            And IBM is still doing great as a company.

                              While people don't buy Wear OS watches because of 'medicore' battery life,they are completely satisfied with Apple's?

                                    That's exactly what IBM did when they dominated the PC market (they created the PC term and it's still used today!) and then they were wiped out by the rest.

                                      Say what you want about Apple, they have transformed the world with their influence. It's truly amazing
